KMS Dandruff Conditioner Review


A few weeks ago I bought KMS dandruff conditioner to try for co-washes. I HATE IT! It didn't make my hair soft at all, and I actually think I'm allergic to it. I used it twice and after both times, my scalp burned like crazyyyy! It usually costs $16.50, but I got it for $3 because Trade Secret was having a sale. To stop the burning, I clarified my hair then deep conditoned and I felt better after that.

Co-Washing. :)

I've been co-washing my hair every Thursday and my hair loves it! It could be contributing to the extra softness I've been feeling and/or the added growth. All I've been doing is pre-pooing for 30 minutes, co-washing, deep conditioning, leave ins, styling. That's it! I thought I was going to give it a try until April (when the heat challenge is up), but I'm not quitting this, my hair has been thriving too much!

I've been using a lot of moisture in my hair lately and I think it's time for a small amount of protein. So I'm either going to co-wash with Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship Conditioner, or DC with ORS replenishing pak.

First Co-Wash Experience!

Today I co-washed for the first time. (well not the first time I've co-washed in the past when needed, not regularly) It went well, I co-washed with V05 moisture milks. It did make my hair soft like everybody said it would.
Then I DC'd with Africa's Best Rinse-Out and Leave-in Deep Conditioner mixed with one n' only argan oil and castor oil. The consistency of it was really runny, but it did make my hair really soft and it feels moisturized. (a lot more moisturized than the Lustrasilk) Best part about it was it was only $4.

Lustrasilk?

I'm not sure if Lustrasilk is good enough for a deep condition. I like the product, I'm just not sure its moisturizing enough for me. I think I should invest in a new DC. I still have 1 1/2 tubs left of it, so I might use it as a pre-poo and/or co-wash until I run out of it. I'm not sure if I'll repurchase after that. So now I'm on a hunt for a new DC. Tomorrow will be my wash day and I might use that, also when I co-wash this week, but after that I really hope to have a new product in my stash! :)

MINOR Regimen Change

Yesterday I said I'll co-wash with Suave and I'll find me a new pre-poo, but actually I found a co-wash (VO5 moisture milks conditioner) and I'll pre-poo with Suave almond and Shea butter conditioner. 

VO5 is a popular co-wash on hair forums so that's why I decided to switch. (it smells great and is only $1.15!)
